Opinions wanted
I have a choice between two cars. Help me decide please! 02 4.6is 122k Silver exterior with black leather interior, aluminum trim Fully loaded w/ nav also Mods: oem BMW 20" cross spoke wheels. They kind of look like e92 m3 comp package wheels. Eisenmann exhaust Bull bar, under ride protection Lowered Dinan intake, performance software and strut bar Very fast and loud Or 05 4.8is 93k miles Lemans blue with a champagne color inferior, wood trim Fully loaded with nav and pano roof as well I think the only mod is Matte black 4.8is wheels. So what do y'all think? Edit: this IS the 4.6is in question

Those are Y spoke wheels. I don't see the underride protector but maybe its just the angle. Are those black things on the front of the hood for scaring deer?
Looks like the 4.6 has 1/2 the aero package. Its missing the front bumper area and the rear bumper area. Also, I've never seen the rear stock flares used with the rear aero package flares like that. Its hard to say without more details especially the prices. Myself, I like to buy as close to stock as possible. Good luck in your search. Supposed to look like this:

Also depends on pricing?
I'm more of the newer the better, but, that's just me. Douglas

I'm thinking maybe the black things were for a bug deflector? Also sorry correction- no under ride protection.
Wow it looks a lot better with aero kit flares and oem bumpers. I think those aero bumpers look weird

While there are a few posters here, with high/higher mileage cars, either of those cars is a leap of faith, imo...the 4.6 pictured, looks 'nice', but has some odd conglomerations, and both have considerable mileage. The mileage itself may not mean that either one are bad deals, or won't run well, but both are nearing that mystical time frame when auto trans, and other stuff may be suspect.
RE: "I have a choice between two cars." There must be other Xs, out there in your locale, with fewer miles, but if those are the two you are enamored with, it may pay to dig deeper, and a PPI is a must. No used car pricing maven, but that "$16" sounds high, and "all the mods" are just that: stuff previous owners did, but should have little impact on real selling price, imo. GL, mD

O...M...G, are you serious? walk away as fast as humanly possible from that 4.6is. that car has been horribly molested. WTF is a ///M52? the M52 is a 6 cylinder motor. it's got paint where paint should not be. love the wheels, the rest of it is just pieced together and looks like garbage.

Holy mother of God! What happened to both Xs? The ONLY thing good on those things are the rims. No X should be subjected to aftermarket aero kits. Worst thing ever! They took away the original skin that differentiated the 4.6 and 4.8 from the 4.4 and 3.0. Those mods. are horrible.
M52 . . . hahahaha . . . idiot
